The Bar Council of India (BCI) released the AIBE 19 final answer key after considering the valid objections on March 06, 2025. The result for AIBE 19 will be published based on the AIBE 19 final answer key. As per the Supreme Court Order on September 2024, BCI allowed final semester law students (3-year or 5-year LL.B) without backlogs to register and appear for the AIBE exam. However, the AIBE result for such candidates is provisional. Read the article to get an idea of what happens to AIBE COP if a candidate fails in graduation.
Candidates who clear the All India Bar Examination will be awarded a Certificate of Practice (CoP). The CoP is a mandatory document to become an advocate and represent clients in a court of law. As AIBE is a qualifying exam, candidates have to score the minimum AIBE passing marks to clear it.
Given below are the eligibility criteria prescribed by BCI for final-year law students to appear for AIBE
Final Semester Law Students (3-year or 5-year LL.B) without backlogs.
Law students who have appeared for final semester exams and have no backlogs.
Law students who have passed their law exams and are awaiting to be awarded the degree certificate.
Law Graduates who have completed their LL.B but have not obtained their degree or are not enrolled with any State Bar Council.
Law graduates who have not enrolled in any State Bar Council.

If a law student fails graduation, he/ she will be eligible to reappear for the exam. As per the revised eligibility criteria for AIBE, final-semester law students (3-year or 5-year LL.B) without backlogs are eligible to register and appear for AIBE. Candidates who fail in graduation can reappear for AIBE after clearing their backlogs.
A final-year law student who failed the final semester exams of the law degree can still reappear for the exam after clearing the backlogs. There is no limit on the number of attempts in AIBE. BCI also does not prescribe any age limit. So, a candidate who failed in graduation can still obtain a CoP by clearing the semester exams first and then clearing the AIBE cut-off by appearing for the bar exam.
A candidate who clears the All India Bar Examination is eligible to get the AIBE CoP certificate. As AIBE is a qualifying exam, candidates who secure passing marks will be deemed to have passed the bar exam and are eligible to get CoP. The AIBE passing marks vary from one category to another. The passing percentage of General/OBC is different as compared to the SC/ ST category. Candidates can check the AIBE cut-off for the General/OBC and SC/ ST categories to obtain AIBE CoP.
Category | Passing % | Passing Marks |
General/ OBC | 45% | 45 marks out of 100 |
SC/ ST | 40% | 40 marks out of 100 |
